... we’ll just start shooting

When you learn that your local community bank was forced to electronically transfer 10% of your life savings to Washington, who exactly will you be shooting at?
Were you envisioning a showdown with government black suits in the town square?
They can rob you from afar and make it look all legal.
They do it every year.

Your question is meant to be rhetorical, but history has shown that it does have an answer.
